Souuniuh Shrine

Maren's Tip

Remember — if a shrine gives Rauru's Blessing with no puzzle inside, the real challenge was reaching the entrance. Check the surrounding area!

Walkthrough

1. Step 1: Enter Souuniuh Shrine in the Necluda region and observe the main chamber.
2. A heavy stone sphere approximately 1 meter in diameter sits on the floor, and the target socket (a concave receptacle designed to hold the sphere) is mounted on a raised platform across the room.
3. The sphere is too heavy to throw accurately, and the platform is too high to reach while carrying it — a gravity-based approach is required.
4. Step 2: Use Ultrahand to grab the stone sphere and carry it up the curved ramp on the right side of the chamber.
5. The ramp spirals upward to a launch platform positioned directly above the target socket below.
6. Move the sphere slowly up the ramp — it is heavy and will slip if you move too fast on the incline.
7. Step 3: At the top of the ramp, position the sphere at the launch platform edge and carefully line it up with the socket below.
8. Look straight down to verify alignment — the socket's glowing rim should be directly beneath the sphere's center.
9. Release the sphere and let gravity drop it into the socket.
10. Step 4: If the sphere misses the socket (common on first attempts due to slight misalignment), do not carry it all the way back up the ramp.
11. Instead, use Recall on the sphere immediately after it bounces.
12. Recall reverses the sphere's movement, floating it back up to the point where you released it.
13. Grab it with Ultrahand at the apex of the Recall, adjust your alignment, and drop again.
14. Step 5: When the sphere clicks into the socket, the altar gate across the chamber slides open with an audible chime.
15. Before proceeding to the altar, check the side alcove to the left of the gate — a chest containing a Zonai Charge Bundle (5 Zonai Charges, useful for powering vehicles and devices) sits against the wall.
16. Step 6: Walk through the gate to the altar and claim your Light of Blessing.
17. Hidden chest: The Zonai Charge Bundle in the side alcove left of the altar gate.
18. Easy to miss if you walk straight through the gate.
19. Ability needed: Ultrahand (carrying the sphere) and Recall (recovering missed shots).
20. Both abilities work together in this shrine to teach the gravity-plus-retry puzzle pattern that appears in many later shrines.
21. Pro tip: The Recall recovery technique used here works on any falling or rolling object in TotK.
22. Whenever a boulder, ball, or projectile moves past its target, Recall brings it back for another attempt — saving enormous time versus manually repositioning heavy objects.
